On our recent trip to New York City, we visited a cocktail bar that had a lavender gimlet on the menu. I ordered it and was immediately obsessed with the drink. Ever since then, I have been wanting to re-create the cocktail at home. I finally gave it a go this weekend, and it tasted almost exactly like the cocktail I had in New York! If you’re a fan of lavender, I think you’ll love this cocktail. Cheers!
